WEDNESDAY MOKXIM6. SEPT. 13. LITITIMAND BREVITIES. The slave of the ocean—the surf. Wool gatherings —Fights between ne grocs. . . Persons given to abstraction pick pockete. The best throw upon the dice is to throw them away. When does a man have to keep hw word ? When no one will take it. The latest thing out —The gas, when it is turned off, and every one has gone to bed. Beauty in a woman is like the flowers in Bpring, bat virtue is like the stars of heaven. Why is the wet o the tongue like a dejected man ? Because it’s down in the mouth. An ill-bred man is said to be like lightning, because he does not know how to conduct himself. Cool—To take a man’s hat with his name in it, simply because you want to get his autograph. A female lecturer says the only de cent thing about Adam was a rib, and that went to make something better. Advice—Avoid arguments with ladies. In spinning a yarn amongst silks and satins, a man is sure to be worsted. “ Would you call this the calf of a leg ?” asked Bob, pointing to one of his nether limbs. “ No,” replied a Hiber nian, “ I should say it was the leg of a calf.”| It has rained so hard at Milwaukee for four months that the Chicago RepMi can asserts that all the children born there are webfooted. A gentleman who had been victimiz ed by a notorious borrower who always forgot to pay, called him one of the most promising men of bis acquaintance. “My son,” said a man of doubtful morals, putting his hand on the head of a young urchin, “ I believe Satan has got hold of you.” “ I believe so too,” was the reply. Hook and one of his friends happen ed to come to a bridge. “Do you know who built this bridge ?” said ho to Hook. “No ; but if you go over you’ll be told.” Modern Mirrors.—An 013 coquette looking into her glass, and seeing her wrinkles, cried : “ This new glass is not worth a farthing. They cannot make mirrors so well as they used to do.” A lawyer once wrote “ rascal" in the hat of a brother lawyer, who, on dis covering it, entered a complaint in open court against the tresspasser, who, he said, had not only taken his hat, but bad written his own name in it. TOPPY MAGUIRE VB. GEN. GRANT. A Rich Scene on a Long Branch Boat— 7he Hon. Hosea B. Perlcins’ Bet—A Jerseyman's Decision—How Mr. Per kins Lost s3—Doe* Toppy Maguire Re j tcmble Gen. Grant f Six weeks ago, last Friday, General Grant went down to Long Branch from this city on the Jesse Hoyt. Ho went up into the npper cabin, and passed out to the forward deck. There he dropped into an easy chair. Soon after the Hon. Hosea B. Perkins took a scat fifteen feet from Gon. Grant. Ho wore black clothes and a high hat, and talked with everybody within speak ing distance. Gen. Grant meanwhile had pulled the newspaper from bis pocket and was reading it very intently. After the boat started, the Hon. Top py Maguire, proprietor of the Caynga House on Harlem Lane, approached Mr. Perkins. “ How do you do, Mr. Perkins?” said Toppy Maguire. “ Quite well, thank you,” responded Mr. Perkins, " how is Mrs. Maguire and tho children ?” “ First rate,” answered Toppy.— " You’re looking well, Mr. Perkins.” “ Do you think so ?” said Mr. Per kins. “ There’s a man over there looks better than I do,” pointing to Gen. Grant. “ Who is it ?” asked Toppy. “ Why don’t you know who that is ?” said Mr. Perkins, in muoh astonishment. “ Well, he looks liko a horse fancier,” replied Mark ; “ but I never saw him before. Who is it ?” “ That is the President of the United States,” said Mr. Perkins, impressively. No ! You don’t tell me so 1” ex claimed Toppy, gasping for breath. “ Yes, I do,” said Mr. Perkins ; “and do you know, Mark, that there’s a great resemblance between you and the Presi dent ? though I think;” looking nervous ly from one to the other, “that the Presi dent’s a better looking man than you are.” “ Well, now, come,” said Toppy; that’s a little rough, Mr. Perkins. I’ll have to bet a little bottle of wine that I’m a better looking man than Grant. If I ain’t I'll shut up the Cayuga and travel.” “ Well, I’ll waggor a small bottle,” said Mr. Perkins. ‘‘But whom shall we leave it to ?” “ Oh, leave it the first Jerseyman that comes along,” responded Toppy. At that instant a Jerseyman approach ed. He wore a small hat, a blue cotton necktie, no vest, a pair of barn-door pantaloons of a red sadstone color, and army shoes. Mr. Perkins aocosted him thus: “ Would you oblige me, sir, by set ling a little wager between this gen tleman and myself pointing his thumb at Toppy Maguire. “ Well,” replied the Jerseyman, com ing to a dead standstill. “ Jest as lieve's not. What’s the bet ?” " Well, we want you to decide which is the best-looking of these two. This one,” pointing to Toppy, “ or that one over thoro reading the paper,” pointing to Grant. The Jerseyman stuck his hands in his breeches pocket, walked over to the President, straddled bis legs, and took a good look at him. Then he returned and gazed at Toppy Maguire in tho same manner. “ Well, what do you think ?’’ asked Mr. Perkins. "They look enough alike to be broth ers,” responded the Jerseyman. “ But I think this here man,” looking at Top py, “ has got a good deal more intellect about him than the other fellow. He’s about as stupid a looking specimus as I ever see.” “ That’ll do,” said Mr Perkins. — “ Mark, let’s go down stairs.” And Mr. Perkins hauled out three dollars and bursted a bottle of wine.— Mew York Sun. L/Vom the Atlanta Sun.] TUB STATE KOAD MUDDLE. Not long since Capt. Blodgett, ex- Superintendent of the Western & At lantic Railroad, essayed to make a eot /p d'etat to pnt Major McCalla out of the way, and get himself in exclusive posses sion of the State Road records, where the vigilant eye of the General Book keeper could not see what he did. In this he failed, as the public kuow. The stake, however, was mighty, and the case desperate. He resorted to the device of trying to turn the records over to the Attorney General, instruct ing him to employ clerks, Ac., to bring up the balances (a thing Blodgett himself could have done months ago, if he had tried), and do other things. The joxnt in this was that the Attor ney General, whatever may have been his wishes in bringing the offenders to punishment, recognized Blodgett as hav ing authority to remove Maj. McCalla ; recognised himself Attorney Gen eral) as having authority received from Blodgett to make appointments and re movals; and the friends of Maj. McCalla feared there would be another attempt to remove him, in which CoL Farrow would try his hand. This fear or ex pectation, it seems, was realised ; for yesterday Colonel Farrow served Maj. Calla with a formal notice of dismissal Maj. McCalla was appointed to the position, or assigned to the duty thereof, by the Governor, and he and his friends held that none but the Governor could remove him. It seems to us that the committee ap pointed to take charge of the records, should have recognised the services, the ability, integrity and knowledge of Maj. M., and required his retention in his place. He knows where to point out the track of the villiany that has taken place, and his services cannot be dis pensed with, and thus ought to be re tained without allowing any recognition of the authority of Blodgett to remove him. But aside from all this, we ask : Why should Oapt. Blodgett and Col. Farrow have used so much strategy in attempting to take from the control of Maj McCalla the State Road books ? If Capt. B. and Col. F. were so wil ling to have the alleged State Road frands investigated, why should they not have unhesitatingly went to the aid and assistance of Maj. McCalla and Maj. Hargrove, who started this good work in good faith to the people of Georgia ? Have not the efforts of Maj. McCalla and of Maj. Hargrove already developed a fact beyond dispute ; that fraud, theft and forgery had been carried into suc cessful operation by State Road officials to the amount of thousands of dollars ? Now, if Capt. B. and Col. F. are friends to these exposures, why do they not come up and support McCalla and H. ? Why should they desire to rid themselves and the community of Mc- Calla’s services—the man above all others calculated to expose these frauds? Why, oh why ? tell us why ? PICS THE GREAT. HIS - LETTER DECLINING THE GOLDEN THRONE. The Osservatore Romano contains the text of the letter addressed by His Holiness to the Marquis Cavaletti, Presi dent of the committee which offered him a golden throne. It is as follows : Very Dear Marquis, Senator and Son in Jesus Christ : The numerous proofs of filial affection which reach me from all points of tho Catholic world produce in me the liveliest emotion. They oblige me to be sincerely grateful, which I try to be, in praying for so many children of the Church. Every week I offer the sacrifice of infinite value, that of the first mass, and complying with the general desire I will, it it please God, offer it again, begging God to deliver our Italy from all the evils which oppress her every day more. Last of all, beloved son of Jesus Christ, who are always so devoted to the Holy See, I have been surprised at the news you have given me—namely, that the good Catholics think of offering me two new and altogether unexpected testi monials of filial love, the gift of a Pon tificial throne of gold, and the addition of the title of Great to the name of Pius IX. With my heart on my lips and with the sincerity of a father who loves affectionately his children in Jesus Christ, I will reply to one and other of those offers. In regard to the precious gift of a golden throne, it has all at once oc curred to my mind that I should em ploy the sum which may be collected in releasing young ecclesiastics whom a sinister law compels to do military ser vice. The clergy is the golden seat that sustains the Church. So it is against the clergy that the efforts of the present rulers are directed. They employ spolia tion and persecution ; they study every where how to render ecclesiastical voca tions very difficult, in order thus to re duce more and more the succession in the ecclesiastical hierarchy, which, de cimated daily by death and tribulations, leaves contiuual voids which cannot be filled, to the great detriment of the Church of Jesus Christ. It seems that the present rulers have given themselves the mission of destroy ing everything, and particularly what ever concerns religion and the Church. While they load with eulogium and grants of money intended to be applied to the encouragement of ecclesiastics who disobey their bishops and apostatize from the faith, they pursue consisfently the infernal system of attacking tho good people, only because these are opposed to the doctrines of their persecutors and their anti-Christian dispositions. But let us leave these blind rulers to follow the path of perdition. Deaf to the first warnings of conscience, skeptics, and forced to ridicule tho good doctrines which are preached under their eyes, they run in the way that leads them to the deep abyss. And now in regard to the word “ Great” to our name. I have presented to my mind a saying of the divine Redeemer. lie traversed the various countries of Judea after He had put on human na ture. A person penetrated with admira tion of His divine virtues addressed him as “ Good Master.” “ Why dost thou call me good ? God alone is good,” im mediately replied Jesus. If, then, Jesus Christ, regarding Himself as a man, de clared that God alone is good, should not His unworthy Vicar say in his turn that God alone is great ? Great by reason of the strength Ho gives Ilis \ icar ; great by reason of the support He gives His Church ; great by reason of the infinite patience He exeroises toward His enemies ; great by reason of the re wards He keeps in store for all those who have abandoned the ways of sin to consecrate themselves to the excercise of penitence ; great by reason of the rigors of justice He will use for the punish ment of unbelievers and of all the obsti nate enemies of the Church. That being granted, I must confess all I have just said—namely, wo shall consecrate tho money collected for the throne to the ransom of young ecclesias tics ; and, in the next place, my name shall continue to be as it has always been. I desire that all repeat, for the glory of God, Magnus Dominus et lau dabilts nimis— the Lord is great and beyond ali praise. Such is the wish ex pressed by the Father to his dear child ren, and in expressing this wish he re iterates assurances of love and gratitude toward them. It is true that the title in question —Great—has been given to three truly great Pontiffs, but that took place only after their death, because then the judgment of men is clearer and calmer. However, may those Pontiffs remain great on the lips and in the hearts of all, and I, with overflowing heart, give you, your family and all good Catho lics, the apostolic benediction. Pius, P. P. IX. At the Vatican, August 8, 1871. BOSTON. The l.ttie Hallway Horror-Teetimenjr of (hr Blamed Kocineer. Boston, August 31. —The inquest on the Eastern Railroad disaster continued to-day. Ashbell Brown, engineer of the Pullman train, was sworn : To the best of my knowledge it was twenty-five minutes" past eight o'clock when the col lision occurred. I started at five min utes past eight from Boston. After I was ready to start the conductor gave motion to go. Luut, the depot master, then came along side the engine in a hurry and says to me, “ Look out for the Saugus branch train.” I said, w All right.” I then started and the first stop I made was at Prison Point. Started and then stopped at Boston and Maine Crossing. Started from there and run to Mystic River bridge, the first place I saw a light as a signal of danger. The first light I saw was moving from a train going in the opposite direction. I whistled for the breaks to be applied and we came,nearly to a stop. Knowing that I had my train under full control I whistled off brakes, ran a little ways and saw a second light swinging in the middle of the track. Soon after I saw the red light on the pole at Saugus Branch was hauled down and the train that was ahead of me crossed the Sau gus Branch. After the switches were set the light was ruu up and as ours was up and another going up this gave me the right of road. I had no reason to suppose there was another train within six miles of me. Ran along, and the first signal of danger 1 saw was after leaving the Overhead bridge. I then discovered two lights looking me in the face. (The witness was affected to tears, and could hardly go on.) I immediately reversed my en gine and whistled for the breaks. Hav ing done all in my power to stop my train, I made preparations to leave my engine, thinking she would run into the rear end of that train. When I got within four or five rods, I jumped off, was thrown on my face and scratched a little. I got up as quickly as I could. My first thought was whether my fireman got off or not. I went up to my engine ; she was blowing off steam so I oould not see my cab. Soon as the en gine got rid of its steam, I looked into the cab and called the fireman by name. I got no reply. Went round to the other side of the train, near where I jumped off, to see if I could not find him.— Think when coming back I met him. Asked if he was hurt ? He said no. Then went to the train to give all the assistance I could. I assisted several persons out of the wrecked care. Staid out about two and a half hours. Heard that the train was going to Boston and having done all that I could went home. Knew nothing of any train after leaving Everett that did not have twenty min utes start of me. Did not expect *the train ahead. Was running not over 20 miles an hour when I passed the Over head bridge. The rate of speed when I jumped was 10 miles per hour. The color of the lights was white. Saw no red lights. Saw no lantern swung. Be ing so near onto that train and knowing that train was there my attention was turned to something else, that is, to stop my train as soon as I could. CROSS-EXAMINATION. I knew that the Beverly train was half an hour behind time ; had no difficulty in seeing a light that night. Did not try to make up for lost time. Always run carefully. Was positive it was the Saugus Branch train that I was to look out for. Can positively swear that there was no train in sight on a straight track that night. Knowing that the Beverly train had twenty minutes start of us, and thinking that they were leav img Revere ahead, when I was starting, I had no anxiety about it. It was my duty to look out for a signal at Revere. Do not expect a light there without there is danger. There was no light though. VVm. E. Simmonds was sworn, and his testimony was corroborative of the engineer’s evidence. Adjourned. THE BOSTON HOLOCAUST. In the late railroad horror near Bos ton it is not generally understood that there were five trains delayed at Sau gus Brauch junction when the accident occurred. The outward Saugus train was waiting for the inward Saugus train and was detaining the Beverly train. The late was followed by another Sau gus, and which delayed the Pullman train. After the Saugus train had pass ed the engineer of the Pullman train supposed the track clear, and hence the disaster. SCENES ON RAILWAY CARS. Mr. Howells, in his genial half-story and half-essay, “Their Wedding Jour ney,”in the September Atlantic, sketches as follows the every day scenes on the cars, which everybody will recognize : “ Yes, it is a very amusing world, if yon do not refuse to be amused; and our friends were very willing to be enter tained. They delighted in the very thick-fingered old ladies who bought sweet apples of the boys who come aboard with baskets, and who were so long in finding the right change that our travelers, leaping in thought with the boys trom the moving train, felt that they did so at the peril of their lives. Then they were interested in people who went out and found their friends wait ing for them, or else did not find them and wandered disconsolately up and down before the country stations, carpet bag in hand ; in women who came aboard, and were awkwardly shaken hands with or sheepishly kissed by those who hastily got their seats for them and placed their bags or their babies in their laps, and turned for a nod at the door ; in young ladies who were seen to places by young men (the latter seemed not to care if the train did go off with them), and then threw up their windows and talked with girl friends on the platform without till the train began to move, and at last turned with gleaming eyes and moist red lips, and panted hard in the excitement of thinking about it, and could not calm themselves to the dull level of the travel around them ; in the conductor, coldly and inaccessibly vigilant as he went his rounds, reaching blindly for the tickets with one hand, while he bent his head from time to time and listened with a faint, sarcastic smile to the ques tion of passengers who supposed they wore going to get some information out of him ; in the train boy, who passed through on his many errands, with prize candies, gum drops, pop corn, papers and magazines, and distributed books and the police journals with a blind im partiality or a prodigious iguorauce or a supernatural perception of character in those who received them.’’ EARTH CLOSETS. epori 01 me Board of Health On the £ub Ject of Deodorizing Nlffht soil. The following is the report of the committee appointed by the Board of Health to inquire into the subject of the earth-closet system : REPORT. Your committee “ on the investiga tion of the earth system of deodorizing night-soil” have the honor to report that they have studied many authorities on deodorizers, and have examined the cer tificates and the scientific essays on the subject of the earth-deodorizing proper ties and earth closets, and have come to the conclusion that the earth system is by far the most superior and the cheap est. This system is not anew one at all, and it seems strange that with such principles—superiority and cheapness— it has not always been the method adopt ed by every people of every nation on the globe. The law of Moses even im posed upon the Israelites the duty of covering the blood of slaughter-houses with earth. And in China, that strange country, where civilization seems to have attained the highest degree in certain times and the lowest in others, they have used earth for disinfecting night-soil from time immemorial. Rosser, in 1831, offered earth united with unslacked lime, soot, powdered gypsum, &e., as a disinfectant for foecal substances, urine, garbage, &c. In 1858 Rev. W. I). Dowditcb, of Wake field, England, recommended to the ag ricultural society the use of dry powder ed clay to remove the impurities of coal gas, house-vessels, privy-boxes, &c. Al most at the same time Rev. H. Moule, in Dorsetshire, had practically tested the deodorizing power of earth on privy soil, and from his exposition of the fact, the earth-closet system became gene rally adopted in England and in many parts of the country. The Medical Press, of February 15, 1871, says: ‘‘Experience has shown that the quality and condition of the earth employed in the closets have much to do with the success of the process, for pure or nearly pure sand has deodoriz ing power ; and the same is the case with chalk and other forms of carbonate of lime. Peat also, although rather more effective than sand or chalk, is not a good deodorizer ; whereas clay, or earth which is rich in clay, is well suited for the purpose. The degree of dryness is also a matter of considerable importance, as it seriously affects the absorbing power of the material ; hence the necessity for selecting a heavy soil, like brick-earth, which is loaded with clay, and then drying it by artificial means, in order that it may be powder ed and sifted, for the purpose of utiliz ing its absorbent action to itslullest ex tent.” ft is calculated that it required pounds per head per day to make of the excrement a solid, inoffensive compost. The advantage of this system is ac knowledged in England to be as follows: 1. The earth-closet, intelligently man aged, furnishes a means of disposition of excrement without nuisance and with out detriment to health. 2. In communities, the earth-closet system requires to be managed by the authority of the place, and will pay at least the expense of its management. 3. In the poorer classes of houses, where supervision of any closet arrange ment is indispensable, the adoption of the earth system is invaluable. 4. It is cheaper and more salubrious than the water-closet. 5. It supersedes the water-closet, thus saving much water for the use of the city, 6. It saves the excrement, which is so important in agriculture, instead of wasting it, and used to choke the sewers and fill the atmosphere with malaria. In our investigations, we found that the prepared earth can be supplied to every household for every privy, with out the charge of one cent. A box of this earth will be regularly supplied, and the filth taken away, charging only the usual rates which have been allowed by law without deodorization. This system will free our community of a nuisance dangerous to health—of a nuisance which has aroused the indigna tion of the people until they actually rioted against it. We therefore earnest ly urge its adoption. — Washington Pa triot.
